Since the turn of the 19th century, Dulwich Hamlet Junior School has been central to the life of the Dulwich Village community. Generations of children have passed through our doors and we are proud that we continue to provide local children with an outstanding education. We are also proud that we have such positive and powerful links with our local community: we make use of the local facilities and businesses and in return we offer polite, enthusiastic and responsible young citizens.

Dulwich's history goes back over 1000 years to Saxon times when it was a hamlet in Surrey, and it retains its village character to this day. For more information on present-day Dulwich see the Dulwich Village Guide.
